The Darien Telephone Company came into existence with humble beginnings.  In 1911, the Darien City Council issued a business franchise, giving permission to construct, maintain and operate telephone lines in the City of Darien.

For over 100 years, Darien Telephone Company has proudly been independently owned and operated. We live and work in your community and have our office in historic Darien. With roots over 100 years deep, we are committed to the local community. No other telecommunications company in our area can match our service on the local level.

With the addition of our subsidiary company, Darien Communications, our services have grown to include more than just Telephone Services. We provide Long Distance Service, Broadband & Networking, and Cable TV Services.

At Darien Telephone Company, We are proud to have a team of dedicated employees and thankful for loyal customers like you.

As we continue to witness technology improve at exponential rates, we look forward to what the next few years and decades will bring.
